Very nice for an occasional variation. Not sure I'd go back with the road bike. Maybe gravel, given the state of the road. Besides, I didn't ride the last 500 metres, there's no road.... read more

Très sympa pour une variante occasionnelle. Pas sûr d'y retourner avec le vélo de route. Peut être le gravel vu l'état de la route. D'ailleurs les 500 derniers mètres je ne les ai pas fais, il n'y a pas de route
